Samsung mocks iPhone fans (again) with its new ad [Video]

Remember when Samsung released that ad mocking iPhone fans queuing for the new iPhone? Yeah you do. It seems that Samsung has decided that it was time to once again demystify the supposedly ‘cool’ thing the iPhone 5 has going for it… because the S III has had it for a while now.

This new ad (like the last one) is pretty fun and we must admit the turnaround time is quite impressive, considering that Apple only debuted the iPhone 5 a week ago. The South Korean smartphone maker picks some choice features to mock such as the new dock connector, larger screen and LTE, which is supposedly old news by those with Samsung’s Galaxy S III. Samsung also adds a humorous twist, showing how one individual is saving a spot for his parents in line while he plays on his S III.

This ad comes on the heels of a print ad released by the company last week, which pits the iPhone 5’s features against the S III using the the tagline: “It doesn’t take a genius.” This new one follows a similar vein to earlier ads by saying “the next big thing is already here.”
